River Mechanics

River Mechanics is basically the behavior of the river to different natural and man made phenomena, how rivers are formed and analysis of river mechanics is based on the concept of water and sediment transport down to the rivers by the action of gravity from up land portion of the ocean. The course contents are:

Flood Frequency Analysis - Gumbel Method

Flood Frequency Analysis is the statistical calculation of the probability of occurrence of flood of specific magnitude in a river, the specific period is called return period and the flow can be ranked as maximum possible flow. In Hydrology flow frequency analysis has occupied an

Important Flood Empirical Formulas

Hydrologic and hydraulic flood analysis are required for planning, design & management facilities. Analysis are needed to determine mar-flood elevation and depth, areas of inundation, sizing channels, levee height, design of highway crossing & culverts and many other.

Flood Runoff Analysis from Snowmelt & Envelope Curves

Run-off analysis taking into account physical processes have been able to be carried out due to sophisticated computers. River basin is formed by a flow in a river channel, an infiltration flow and a groundwater flow that have different hydraulic characters. The Bureau of Reclamation has used a method called, "Snow Compaction Method for the Analyses of Runoff from
